How to judge if you are depressed?

There are standard methods to judge depression in medicine, including three core symptoms and seven additional symptoms.

It is generally believed that people who have at least 2 core symptoms and at least 2 additional symptoms for more than 2 weeks can be regarded as mild depression;

If there are 2 core symptoms and 3-4 additional symptoms, it is considered as moderate depression;

If there are 3 core symptoms and at least 4 additional symptoms, it is considered as severe depression.

I am emo again today. Recently, I feel gloomy and don't like to see anyone. I don't like watching my favorite movies, and my favorite fruits are not fragrant ... Is this depression?

Come, come, come! Now teach everyone how to judge whether they have depression. Let's take the exam together ~

The specific test contents are as follows:

First, the core symptoms

1, Depression: I often feel "bored", "unwilling to move" or "bored", or I often feel hopeless, powerless and helpless.

2. Lose interest and pleasure: I don't want to go out, I don't like social activities, I don't like contact with people around me, I just want to lie still in bed.

Second, other symptoms

2. Self-evaluation and low self-confidence: I feel "sorry, it's all my fault" and "I'm really useless", insecure and afraid to talk to others.

3. Self-guilt concept and sense of worthlessness: I can always hear the auditory hallucination of condemnation, feel guilty, useless to this society, useless to my relatives and friends around me, think that my life is meaningless, and everything is my own fault.

4, think that the future is bleak and pessimistic: think that there is no job that you are qualified for, and have no hope for your future and future.

5. The concept and behavior of self-injury or suicide: I feel that my life is meaningless and my existence is redundant, which leads to the thoughts related to self-injury and suicide. This kind of self-injury or suicidal tendency is obvious, or this kind of behavior has appeared.

6, sleep disorders: there are different degrees of insomnia, difficulty falling asleep, dreaminess, easy to wake up and other symptoms.

7, loss of appetite: even in the face of their favorite food, but also feel no appetite, do not want to eat.

If all the above situations happen to you, even more serious than those described above, and this situation continues, you need to consider whether you have depression. Little friends should pay attention to the fact that depression is a mental illness, which needs the treatment of professional psychiatrists. Don't be silly to think that watching a "psychiatrist" like that in a TV series can cure you.

In addition, I also want to remind you that nine times out of ten life is unsatisfactory, and no one's life is smooth sailing. When you are tired, you can play games, watch movies, travel and do something that makes you relaxed and happy. Once you are depressed, you can talk to your family and friends, but don't hold back ~
